Last week I forget to get new loaf of whole wheat bread from the store while food shopping.Instead of running out again to the store,I suggested to hubby that I should make whole wheat bread at home since I have plenty of unbleached flour,whole wheat flour and bread machine.As for bread we only buy whole wheat bread because it's has better health nutrient than white bread.Having bread machine at home really make our life easier when making bread.All I have to do is measure the ingredients and dump everything in the machine.Just press the function button,there it's goes...No need to remove the dough after mixing or move the dough to pan or to bake in oven.. I added honey and bread improver to make the bread extra soft and tangy sweet.

Method:1:All ingredients should be at room temperature before starting.Add all ingredients in the order suggested by your bread machine cycle and process on the whole wheat bread cycle according to the manufacturer’s directions.2:After the dough cycle finish remove the blade from the pan.Let the dough proof accordingly before the bake cycle start.Remove pan from machine after bake cycle done with beep.3:Let loaf cool for 15 minutes before remove from pan and slice.Makes 2 lb loaf (13 slices or more).

Nowadays we can get inexpensive and delicious Fajita from Tako Bell or in other fast food outlet as easy as ABC..But some people still prefer to make fajita at home because we can use our own favourite filling .Few days ago I have some left over fillet mignon and decided to make simple and easy beef fajita.Sometimes,I run out of idea what to cook for hubby.By the way he like the beef fajita I make for him..Just make sure I don't cook the onion and omit bell pepper,he remind me:p

It's been a while I cook any pasta dish for my family.Mishu love spaghetti meat ball but unfortunately I don't eat beef.Usually I would humor her but it's been awhile I have any pasta and would love to have linguine in marinara sauce ..So I figure out it's would be nice to use seafood with linguine and marinara sauce.Last week I bought two pound of plum tomato and decided to use fresh tomato to make the sauce but too bad ,the plum tomato is just a pound not enough to make marinara sauce for the whole family. Then I add in a bottle of ready make marinara sauce together with the freshly blend plum tomato.Combine 2 different kind of sauce is an excellent idea!! It's really super delicious especially with the seafood flavor!!!

1:Boil water in large stock pot to cook pasta.When water rolling boil add in pasta and salt,cook accordingly to the instruction on the package.Drained cooked pasta before add in butter and set aside.2:Wash plum tomato and blend until puree,set aside.3:Meanwhile prepare large stock pot or deep skillet at medium heat,add in olive oil and chopped garlic.Saute garlic until lightly brown ,add puree plum tomato sauce and marinara sauce.4:Stir in salt and ground pepper into the sauce and cook until bubbly .Add in shrimp,bay scallop and clam into the sauce ,cook for 5-10 minutes before add in pasta.Mix pasta well and cook for another 5 minutes.Check the seasoning before remove from heat.5:Sprinkle some grated Parmesan cheese and cilantro before serve warm.

I have plenty of cream cheese in the fridge,so wondering what should I do beside making cream cheese with bagel. I prefer baking cream cheese cake rather than cream cheese pie.When I was blog hopping looking for cream cheese cake recipe I found a pineapple cream cheese cake at dailydelicious but instead of pineapple I replaced it with blackberries which I froze it during summer .I used a mini spring form pan instead of little cake pan..This cake is really moist and soft not to said it's quite simple and easy to make..Enjoy!!

Method:1:Preheat the oven to 160°C.Butter and flour the pans.Sift together the flour, baking powder.2:Cream the butter, cream cheese and sugar , until the mixture is smooth and light in color.Add the almond powder and beat to combine, the follow by the egg, egg yolk, lemon juice, and yogurt, mixing until fully incorporated after each addition and scarp down the bowl as needed.Pour the flour mixture and fold to combine.3:Add the blueberries and fold to combine.Pour the batter into prepared pan.Bake for 30-35 minutes (if using the 18cm ring mold, the baking time will be 35-40 minutes) or until the cake spring back when lightly touched and a skewer inserted near the center come out clean.4:Cool the cake in the pan for a few minutes, then unmold onto the racks to cool completely.
